Ancient trees are shipped to the UK, then burned – using billions in ‘green’ subsidies. Stop this madness now

Is there an energy company that offers a "non Drax" plan?
This is insane. it would be SO much cheaper to sequester it or use it for material
This is deliberate destruction on a scale that is literally evil but everyone has to pretend its normal because corporation
You're quite literally burning the Earth's lungs
Drax is an ongoing horrible scandal. The theory was that you could burn replaceable trees and wood waste and replant it and then at the very least it was a cycle, all be it a cycle that had a massive lag of many years before the CO2 was once again captured by new tree growth and the old coal power stations could continue on with this new fuel. In practice its repeatedly been caught cutting down ancient trees that wont be replaced from Canada and the USA. It should not be receiving green subsides its just accelerating the climate crisis and despite its relatively low energy output its the biggest contribution to CO2e production in the UK power system because burning wood is so inefficient.
The iamkate and gridwatch sites (https://grid.iamkate.com/ and https://www.gridwatch.templar.co.uk/) don't seem to know quite how to classify it with the iamkate putting it into blue alongside nuclear and templar just noting in its description a link to the scandal but also including "bio" in its renewable graphs.
You think too much. They fully know what they are doing and are literally trying to kill everything on this planet and make sure nothing may continue here.
Prove me wrong.
What I say is fucking obvious. Anything and everything is literally and act of that with a big long gibberish trying to make you think anything else.
It is rapidly becoming hard to deny that anyone less than Captain Planet villains are in charge.
Who'd have thought a business named after a Bond villain would have turned out to be horrible
If you’re going to burn something for energy, burn garbage like non-recyclable plastic waste.
or a selection of CEOs, perhaps?
